This plant appears to propel the conveyor belt and also allows two different sections of long conveyor belt to overlap one another with the incoming conveyor on the right riding up and over the receiving conveyor on the left with conveyed material being dropped from the former onto the latter. This is the view from the public footpath near its crossing of the conveyor belt. Please see Image and Image for views in opposite directions from the actual crossing.
